§2 Before Use the Device
§2.1 Operation Requirements
I In order to ensure proper operation of GM-2730S, there are some requirements for other digital TV and
network devices, which will connect with GM-2730S. Please see below for details:
§2.1.1 Requirements for Digital TV Devices
The output or input transport streams of the devices, which will provide signal source to or receive signal
from GM-2730S should comply with the following standards:
Transport Stream (TS): This means that the TS stream with one or more channels of digital TV, digital
audio broadcasting or any other digital TV services should comply with DVB standard; it must contain
PAT and PMT tables, which can completely describe the services.
For GM-2730S, the TS packets must be encapsulated into UDP datagram. Each output TS should have
unique destination IP address (unicast or multicast) and port number. The length of the UDP payload
must be 7*188Byte (TS packets), and the payload must be synchronized by sync byte 0x47.
GM-2730S may be able to receive/feed multiple transport streams from/into any devices with the TS
format complies with the above-mentioned format.
§2.1.2 Requirements for Network Devices
The switch used for the GM-2730S data output and its destination devices’ (the IPQAM modulator shown
in figure 3) output port switch (the “gigabit switch” in figure 3) must be a Layer 3 gigabit switch which can
be managed, indispensability to support IGMP2.0. The backboard exchange speed must be higher than
10Gbps; the maximum throughput of each port must be higher than 1Gbps.
The switch for the GM-2730S and the managing workstation should be a 100M or gigabit switch, the
maximum data exchange speed of each port must be higher than 40Mbps. Normally, It can be the same
switch with GM-2730S’s output data switch, the two ports need to be configured to different VLANs.
Any hosts that may worsen the network traffic, such as some workstations or servers installed real-time
communication tools, streaming media server or WEB server, must not be located at the LAN switch of
the output of GM-2730S. These additional signals may cause packet loss, network jitter worsening, and
hence due to audio/video distortion at the audiences.
§2.2 System Requirements
Management workstation must have network connection and support TCP/IP protocol. Microsoft
Windows 2000/XP (or higher versions) and Internet Explorer 6.0 (or higher version) are the
recommended operating systems of the management workstation, and JavaScript must be supported by
the web browser.

§3 Operating the Device
§3.1 Quick Start
Please follow the procedures below if it is the first time for you to use GM-2730S for constructing DTV
head-end system:
1、 Construct your hardware environment, including chassis installation, power supply system
deployment, and connecting switches, GM-2730S, the preceding device(s)(e.g. IRD, encoders,
etc.), the succeeding device(s), management workstation properly .
2、 Plan for the IP addresses of management port and data port, the cable connectors (coaxial cable,
Gigabit network) of each preceding/succeeding devices; as well as number of digital TV
transport streams and their output channels. It is recommended to take remark of device
addresses, port numbers and other configurations and keep it safely for checking purposes in
future.
3、 Boot up each preceding devices of GM-2730S and configure the operating parameters, in order
to ensure the proper signal receiving/decoding or output of encoded digital TV transport streams.
Please refer to the user manuals of preceding devices provided by their suppliers for detailed
configuration.
4、 Boot up GM-2730S, If you have known the management port IP address of the GM-2730S you
are currently using, and it is in the same subnet with the management workstation, you may also
start configuring GM-2730S from the management workstation directly. Or otherwise you will
need to configure the IP address of management port using front panel control (refer to section
错误！未找到引用源。)
5、 Login to the web browser from the management workstation, key in the default user name
“admin” and password “000000”; add and configure usernames and passwords of users allowed
to access the device (refer to section§3.2.2 )
6、 Configure the input and output data port(refer to section§3.2.2 )
7、 Search for input programs tree (refer to section §3.2.7.3), configure the output program settings,
including: select input program for output stream(refer to section 错误！未找到引用源。),
configure the ES PID, SI/PSI version number of each program, and configure the auto-generated
SI parameters or upload SI segments output program parameter (refer to section 错误！未找到
引用源。); if needed.
8、 Configure the SNMP parameters if needed. (refer to section 错误！未找到引用源。).
9、 Configure the data IP address of GM-2730S’s preceding devices. The work parameter setting of
GM-2730S’s succeeding device refers to the user manuals provided by their suppliers.
10、 Make use of stream analyzer to test the system. If the device works properly and the output
signal can be received, then it is ready for transmission in the real network
